Explore the 2025 Porsche 911 Lineup
With six primary models and multiple body styles available, the 2025 Porsche 911 offers a wide spectrum of performance and personality. Use the quick comparison below to get a feel for what sets each variant apart before exploring them in more detail.
Note: All performance figures are Porsche manufacturer estimates. Final pricing depends on body style and configuration (Porsche USA, Porsche Newsroom).
While performance figures are helpful, the real distinction between 2025 Porsche 911 models comes down to driving character. Models like the 911 Carrera and Carrera S are impressively comfortable and refined—ideal for daily use—while variants such as the 911 Carrera GTS, 911 Turbo, and 911 GT3 adopt firmer suspension tuning and sharper steering response to support higher-speed capability and more focused dynamics (Porsche USA).
Another key difference is how each model communicates with the driver. Rear-wheel drive models tend to feel lighter and more agile, especially in cornering, while all-wheel drive variants offer greater confidence in variable road conditions. The T-Hybrid system in the 911 Carrera GTS introduces electrified performance that enhances response without altering the familiar 911 feel, while the naturally aspirated GT3 models provide a high-revving, emotionally distinct alternative to the turbocharged lineup (Porsche Newsroom).
No matter which trim you choose, each 911 is built with the same commitment to precision, balance, and unmistakable Porsche identity.
